Description

Foot opening mechanism (1)

The invention provides a foot opening mechanism (1), in particular to a foot opening mechanism (1) for accomplishing convenient and convenient use of the door by interlocking the door latch assembly.

According to the door, the purpose of the door is very wide. It is often used to control or close a specific area. Through the door panel and the related mechanism, the door panel and the door frame are combined, and the purpose of closing and isolating the specific area has been achieved.

Generally, the doors used in daily life are mostly a handlebar that is pivoted on the door panel, and the rotating handlebar drives the latch mechanism to separate the door panel from the door frame, thereby achieving the purpose of opening or closing the door.

However, such a handle-type switch door mechanism is designed for use by ordinary people. If the hands cannot be vacated, the items in the hands must be placed before being opened, or other people in the vicinity can help open them. It is even more difficult for the disabled to open and close the hand when it is inconvenient to hold the handle with both hands.

Therefore, how to solve the above problems and deficiencies in the above-mentioned applications, that is, the inventors of the present invention and those involved in the industry are eager to study the direction of improvement.

Therefore, the inventors of the present invention have collected the relevant information in view of the above-mentioned deficiencies, and through multi-party evaluation and consideration, and through years of experience accumulated in the industry, through continuous trial and modification, this design has been designed by pedaling. The door latch assembly completes the purpose of opening and closing the door to achieve a practical and progressive pedal opening mechanism (1) for the convenience of use.

The main purpose of the invention is to rotate the linkage component pivoted on the door panel through the force output of the force applying member, synchronously interlocking the door latch assembly to actuate, and separating the door panel from the door frame to achieve the purpose of opening and closing the door, by the above technology, For the problem that the door of the custom is not convenient for the use of the upper limb disabled, the breakthrough is achieved, and the practical progress of convenient use is achieved.

In order to achieve the above object, the main structure of the pedal opening mechanism (1) of the present invention comprises a door panel, a door latch assembly disposed on one side of the door panel and reciprocatingly, and a linkage assembly pivoted on one side of the door panel. One end of the assembly has a connecting portion coupled to the latch assembly, and the other end of the linking assembly is provided with a force applying member.

The latch assembly includes a first latch member provided with a ball set, a second latch member slidably coupled with the ball set and the first latch member, and an elastic member coupled to the second latch member at one end The other end is bonded to the door panel.

Through the above structure, when the user wants to perform the door opening action, the foot is lightly pressed against the force applying member and slowly pressed down. At this time, the force applying member drives the interlocking component to rotate, and simultaneously moves the second door latch member to borrow. This separates the door panel from the door frame and completes the door opening. Through the above structure and action, the invention achieves the purpose of opening and closing the door by interlocking the door latch assembly, so as to achieve practical advancement of convenient use.

In order to achieve the above objects and effects, the technical means and the structure of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments of the present invention.

The first and second figures are a perspective view and an exploded view of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It can be clearly seen from the figure that the foot opening mechanism (1) of the present invention includes: a door panel 1, The door panel 1 is formed with an opening 11; a latch assembly 2 disposed at one side of the door panel 1. The latch assembly 2 includes a first latch member 21, a second latch member 22, a ball set and an elastic member 23. The first latch member 21, the second latch member 22 and the ball set are coupled to each other, and the first latch member 21 and the second latch member 22 are slidably disposed on each other, and one end of the elastic member 23 is disposed on the second latch member 22, and the other end is disposed On the door panel 1; and a linkage assembly 3 pivotally mounted on one side of the door panel 1 and coupled to the latch assembly 2, a coupling portion 31 is formed at one end of the linkage assembly 3 to cooperate with the second latch member 22, and The other end of the linkage assembly 3 has a force applying member 32, and the force applying member 32 passes through the opening 11.

The connecting portion 31 defines a hole for a connecting member to be pierced, and the connecting member is coupled to the second door latch member 22.

Where the door panel 1 is passed through the reset component 5 and the door frame 4 In combination, a joint for inserting the second latch member 22 is formed on the door frame 4.

The door panel 1 is provided with a limiting portion group adjacent to the opening 11, and the resetting assembly 5 is provided with a compression spring for recombination.

With the above-mentioned structure and composition design, the following is a description of the operation of the present invention. Please refer to the third and fourth figures, which are the use state diagram (1) of the preferred embodiment of the present invention. Using the state diagram (2), it can be clearly seen from the figure that the door panel 1 and the door frame 4 are normally closed and closed for use as a space partition. When the door needs to be opened, the user places the foot on the force applying member 32. And slowly stepping down, during the stepping, the urging member 32 drives the linkage assembly 3 to rotate, so that the connecting portion 31 at one end of the linkage assembly 3 also rotates synchronously, and drives the second latch member 22 away from the joint portion. The direction slips, so that the door panel 1 and the door frame 4 are separated from each other, and the door panel 1 is pushed or pulled to complete the opening operation; when the user no longer applies the force to the door panel 1, the door panel 1 is actuated by the resetting component 5. Therefore, when the door panel 1 is returned to the closed position, when the door panel 1 and the door frame 4 are horizontally joined, the second latch member 22 is slid in the direction of the joint portion due to the elastic contraction of the elastic member 23, so that the second latch is released. Part 22 is inserted in the joint In the process of closing the door panel 1 and the door frame 4, the connecting portion 31, the linking assembly 3 and the urging member 32 will exhibit a reverse pressing force applying member 32 during the sliding movement of the second door latch member 22. The door opening process is restored to the state in which the door panel 1 and the door frame 4 are tightly closed, and is again passed through the next time when the door panel 4 is opened. The force applying member 32 is pressed, and the above operation is performed again, so that the latch assembly 2 and the interlocking assembly 3 cooperate to achieve the purpose of opening and closing the door.

However, the above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and thus it is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the simple modification and equivalent structural changes of the present specification and the drawings should be treated similarly. It is included in the scope of the patent of the present invention and is combined with Chen Ming.

In summary, the foot opening mechanism (1) of the present invention can achieve its efficacy and purpose when used, so the invention is an invention with excellent practicability, and is an application for conforming to the invention patent, To file an application, I hope that the trial committee will grant the invention as soon as possible to protect the inventor's hard work. If there is any doubt in the trial committee, please do not hesitate to give instructions, the inventor will try his best to cooperate, and feel really good.
